THIRD DISPATCH.

THIRD DISPATCH.
Immediately after the explosion
Deputy O'Neill rushed into Lingg's cell
which was completely enveloped in
smoke. There he found the young An
archist lying on his back, with great
hole in his head, from which blood
flowed in torrents. He was at once car
ried into the jail Office and placed on a
table. He was still breathing family,
and while DIR. Gray was examining him
he coughed slightly and blood poured
forth again from his terrible wounds
and from his mouth and nose. The
physician said the man could only live
an hour or so at the most and he ex-
pected his death every minute.
FOURTH DISPATCH.
All day yesterday, it was thought that
Lingg acted differently from usual. On
Tuesday night he gave out his
FAREWELL ADDRESS,"
which was written for the Alarm, Par
sons old paper. In it he cited his
grievances and closed as follows:
Now, with last and earnest farewell 10
wishes for their prosperity, close, with
view of certainty that shall never have
chance of seeing you again. My beloved
comrades, with an earnest and hearty wish
for your future success in life, your COM

When Jailer Folz made the examina-
ton of the cell, on the floor he found
the shell of Illuminating cap. The
sheriff said there had been, I'M
dynamite in it. The suppo-
sition that the man put the shell in his
mouth and
APPLIED THE CANDLE
is undoubtedly correct. The explosion
was terrific. 1t startled the officials
who thought it was a bomb, the noise
was so great. The shell was SO small as
to allow the smuggling of it into the
Jail without trouble.

throat, neck and front of the jaw had
been torn away. He administered stlmu-
lants, but failed to arouse the man. Yet
the doctor states that there is faint
possibility that Iingg may yet live.

field greatly encouraged. He is con-
fident that the sentence of at least
three, and probably all of the men,
will be committed. The attorney for
Lingg, who has been trying to have the
young Anarchist declared insane, made
application before Judge Baker this
for writ in Lingg's behalf,
but was refused.
H,w the dynamite was smuggled into

rally believed that there is traitor
among the death watch, who gave him
the dynamite and cap. This is the
theory at the sheriff's Office.
Captain Black came to the jail shortly
after 10 O'Clock He went to the room
where the doctors were working with
LlDgg.
"Poor fellow, poor fellow" he said.
'Can he recognize me2"
Lingg opened Ills eyes, looked stead

head. The rags and strings Of the flesh
